The summary's statement that the researchers have "identified" perforins as the causative agent of cell membrane perforation is misleading, that has been known for quite some time, as you mention.
You are quite right. Perhaps the sentence would have been more accurately phrased as the researchers having identified the mechanism of how perforin works. I don't have any experience in this field and this is a mistake on my part. Rest assured that this mis-statement is unintentional and I hope my future submissions will be of higher quality.
Yes, in Simplified Chinese, "dry" and "do" are written the same; but they are pronounced differently. There can be no confusion when spoken. Just one of the downfalls of an online translator I suppose.
The cost of being all-inclusive can be too high for some budgets. The same could be said for supporting minor browsers, such as Safari. Ideally developers would code to the standard and could say with reasonable confidence that the website would work with any standards-compliant browser. It is, however, a sad case that individual browsers had to be tested and supported due to poor or insufficient compliance. I believe most browsers are very good in that regards and getting better.
Now if you acutally shoot someone with a gun, it looks more violent still because they are writhing in pain, screaming and spewing blood everywhere. Cute!;)
One experience I had was that I can recall large portions of a movie like I had watched it before. I could swear I watched it a few years ago but it was only released for the first time recently. Very spooky experience.
I can see it now. On one hand, people yell: "Think of the children!" as if the children are victims; on the other hand, the same people would turn around and treat them as bloody criminals.
If you want to crack down on drugs and violence, go at the big time dealers/offenders. Don't put up a lame excuse to a policy that makes you look like you're doing something when you're not.
I've gone without Flash for quite some time now and I find the experience lifting. Gone are the days of (usually) colourful flashy things giving me eyesore! Most of the time they're either annoying or meaningless.
I suppose I'd rather not have a Flash plugin at all. Too bad for those Flash sites...
I thought part of doing business is about making the right (highly subjective) decisions at the right time. This is just another decision that they will have to make.
They could have chosen to install a selected few distros depending of the type of computers. Debian on a server, or maybe strike a deal with Red Hat or Novell and install RHEL or SuSE. On the desktop, they could have installed Ubuntu or Mandriva. But hey, if they like to install something else instead, that's a good thing! It will still a start for wider support and acceptance of Linux distros.
Or they could have decided to not install any Linux distros by default and maybe miss a great chance. Who knows?

And I'm corrected constantly because, as I have learned, I am always wrong.
No you're not always wrong!
That just blew my mind.

Apparently the submitter believes that a poorly maintained third party extension ceases to become poorly maintained with Google's blessing.
Now where do I find a unicorn to sacrifice on the altar?
If there was a virgin messing with me, I wouldn't bother too much about the site not loading well.
IIRC, the answer to the Theory of Everything is 42, no?
Yes, but will it float?
I don't see the reason why Wikipedia cannot document every trivial human knowledge and still be a trustworthy and credible reference source.
For a moment I actually read that as "end of line".org. Maybe I should go get a life?
Clearly the GP is from Australia where they end their sentences in a high pitch sounding like a question?

Or people were using something other than Google to search. Perhaps Yahoo or MSN?
It did mention "declining popularity of Google" as a possibility.
At first I had problems telling if this was a Backslash article or a Slashback article.
Backslash started with a recap of just one story, and that was good. Now we have a Backslash of many stories. What's next, a Backslash-Slashback?
No wonder the tubes are jammed.

Unfortunately both requires the use of non-Free software by streaming through Flash. Last I checked, there is still no 64-bit implementation of Flash.
